3 Establishing a DoD Engineering Center of Excellence DoD Center of Excellence DoD Engineering Center of Excellence Support Acquisition Success Improve State-of-the- Practice of Engineering Leadership, Outreach and Advocacy Foster Resources to Meet DoD Needs Systems & Software Engineering Chris Miller, June 2008 Slide 5 Elements of a DoD Strategy for Software Support Acquisition Success Ensure effective and efficient software solutions across the acquisition spectrum of systems, SoS and capability portfolios Improve the State-of-the-Practice of Software Engineering Advocate and lead software initiatives to improve the state-of-thepractices through transition of tools, techniques, etc. Leadership, Outreach and Advocacy Implement at Department and National levels, a strategic plan for meeting Defense software requirements Foster Software Resources to meet DoD needs Enable the US and global capability to meet Department software needs, in an assured and responsive manner Promote World-Class Leadership for Defense Software Engineering Systems & Software Engineering Chris Miller, June 2008 Slide 6
4 Getting Started What are we Doing? Identifying software issues, needs Software Industrial Base Study NDIA Top Software Issues Workshop Defense Software Strategy Summit Creating opportunities, partnerships Established network of Government software POCs Chartered the NDIA Software Committee and Expert Panel Information exchanges with Government, Academia, and Industry Executing focused initiatives Providing software support to acquisition programs Foundational assessment of software policy/guidance Study of Software/SE integration Software Engineering reference curriculum Engineering for System Assurance SoS Systems Engineering Guide CMMI Integrity, CMMI-ACQ, CMMI Guidebook Early Systems/Software Engineering Systems & Software Engineering Chris Miller, June 2008 Slide 7 Top Software Issues* 1. The impact of requirements upon software is not consistently quantified and managed in development or sustainment. Requirements 2. Fundamental system engineering decisions are made without full participation of software engineering. SE/SW Integration 3. Software life-cycle planning and management by acquirers and suppliers is ineffective. Sustainment 4. The quantity and quality of software engineering expertise is insufficient to meet the demands of government and defense industry. Human Captial 5. Traditional software verification techniques are costly and ineffective for dealing with the scale and complexity of modern systems. Testing 6. There is a failure to assure correct, predictable, safe, secure execution of complex software in distributed environments. Assurance 7. Inadequate attention is given to total lifecycle issues for COTS/NDI impacts on lifecycle cost and risk. COTS * NDIA Top Software Issues Workshop August 2006 Systems & Software Engineering Chris Miller, June 2008 Slide 8
5 Driving Technical Rigor Back Into Programs Program Support Reviews Program Support Reviews provide insight into a program s technical execution focusing on: SE as envisioned in program s technical planning T&E as captured in verification and validation strategy Risk management - integrated, effective and resourced Milestone exit criteria as captured in Acquisition Decision Memo Acquisition strategy as captured in Acquisition Strategy Report Independent, cross-functional view aimed at providing risk-reduction recommendations The PSR reduces risk in the technical and programmatic execution of a program Systems & Software Engineering Chris Miller, June Program Support Review Activity (since March 2004) PSRs/NARs completed: 48 AOTRs completed: 11 Nunn-McCurdy Certification: 10 Participation on Service-led IRTs: 2 Technical Reviews: 12 Reviews planned for FY08: PSRs/NARs: 21 AOTRs: 2 Nunn-McCurdy: 2 Service-Managed Acquisitions Pre-MS C 21% Pre-MS B 30% Decision Support Reviews OTRR 6% Nunn- McCurdy 12% DAE Review 7% Pre-MS A 4% Programs by Domain Area Other 20% Air Force 34% Agencies 9% Business 2% Missiles 9% Fixed Wing 18% Other 7% Space 5% Land 16% Rotary Wing 18% Marine Corps 9% Army C2-ISR 9% Unmanned 5% 28% Munitions 4% Ships 7% Navy 20% Systems & Software Engineering Chris Miller, June
6 DoD Software Performance: What We re Seeing* Software issues are significant contributors to poor program execution Schedule realism (compressed, overlapping) Software requirements not well defined, traceable, testable Immature architectures, COTS integration, interoperability, obsolescence (electronics/hardware refresh) Software development processes not institutionalized, planning documents missing or incomplete, reuse strategies inconsistent Software test/evaluation lacking rigor and breadth Lessons learned not incorporated into successive builds Software risks/metrics not well defined, managed *Based on over 60 program reviews over the past 3 ½ years Systems & Software Engineering Chris Miller, June Software Engineering and System Assurance (SSA) Role SSA produced software estimates to support several PSR teams in 2007 Program A: SSA was asked to assess software schedule feasibility prior to MS B Program B: Significant software issues Opportunity for SSA to support program decision making by providing software estimates Estimation activities aimed at gauging overall program feasibility and quantifying magnitude of top program risks Focus on support for engineering vs. budgeting decisions Systems & Software Engineering Chris Miller, June
7 Program A PSR of aircraft program with ambitious schedule Three years (36 months) from Milestone B to LRIP Modifications needed to meet U.S. requirements Developed three software estimates Software size (SLOC) estimates provided by program office Re-estimated both new and reused code» Based on reuse and code growth» Estimates for optimistic, typical, and pessimistic were identified as Min, Mid, and Max Used three parametric models» COCOMO II, SLIM, and SEER-SEM Most input parameters set at nominal Systems & Software Engineering Chris Miller, June Program A Estimation & Feasibility Analysis Given an adjusted code size (ASIZE) of 918K to 1590K SLOCs A range of 5375 to 9571 person months should be expected over a 62 to 74 calendar month schedule COCOMO II Min Mid Max ASize (KSLOC) 918 1, Effort (PM) Duration (CM) All three models forecasted 65 to 68 months (assuming a 50% confidence-level) Result: Analysis revealed existing acquisition strategy was not feasible Service added more schedule to acquisition strategy DUSD(A&T) estimates change in acquisition strategy saved $5 billion Systems & Software Engineering Chris Miller, June
8 Program B Major subcontractor with significant software content did not use any parametric estimating tool Firm Fixed Price subcontract At one point there was a substantial conflict on estimates between major subcontractor and prime, related to requirements One portion of software grew from ~250KSLOC to 863KSLOC (3.5x), reflecting shall not degrade current capability requirement Increase in software engineering staff by 57 percent (40 people) over 9 month period Based on schedule, contractor should be drawing down software staff Significant variation in code estimates during review Systems & Software Engineering Chris Miller, June Program B Changes in SLOC estimates CSCI Supplier Original NM Review 2 wks. later New Reuse Complete % Test coverage to-date DR's/Problem reports 1 A 40, , , ,144 49,700 75% 68% 47 2 B 27,000 50,363 50,363 40,363 10,000 90% 85% 0 3 A 20,000 38,962 38,962 38, % 60% C 325, , , , ,811 98% 98% D 65, ,255 25,467 18,367 7,100 82% 60% 0 8 C 33, , ,129 68,129 32,000 99% 99% 0 9 E 15,000 7,879 7,879 2,000 5, % 100% 1 10 F 114, , ,609 16, ,200 99% 95% 0 11 G 26,000 25,622 34,544 8,922 25, % 100% 2 12 H 6,000 16,580 16,580 15,580 1, % 100% 2 13 H 2,000 34,806 34,806 17,206 17, % 100% 0 14 I 33,000 42,355 42,355 31,655 10,700 99% 97% 1 15 G 15, , ,626 6, , % 100% 0 16 K 23,000 26,404 26,404 2,604 23,800 91% 91% 1 17 L 7,000 12,500 12,500 1,000 11, % 100% 1 18 C 1,000 29,121 29,121 25,621 3, % 100% 7 19 M NA 100 1,000 1,000 Unavail 100% 100% 0 20 C NA 2,600 2, ,200 81% 43% 0 752,000 2,078,969 1,413,521 Systems & Software Engineering Chris Miller, June
